The road to Festival of Lights

The road to Festival of Lights

As most of you already know, that we are one of the lucky studios that have qualified for the finals of the 3D mapping projection awards of the Festival of Lights 2015. Here is the detailed information for the awards this year as they are published in the official website of the Festival.

“Since many years, the FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS presents breathtaking video mappings on the facades of the historic buildings in the capital. The productions, which actively integrate the architecture of the buildings, fascinate visitors and guests from all over the world and create the special charm of the FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS. More and more designers and artists give this game of reality and illusion a try. The many applications of international artists to participate in the festival urged Birgit Zander, artistic director of the BERLIN FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS, to initiate the first world championship for projection mapping with the first BERLIN FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS awards. ‘‘We are very proud that the first world championship takes place in Berlin and that the capital as a cultural metropolis again causes an international sensation”, explains Birgit Zander.

For the first time, the best teams for video art and projection mapping will compete against each other in a creative contest at the FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS in October 2015. The international artists will form up in 2 categories: NEW DIMENSIONS – supported by the FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS and prg – and VISION OF ENERGY – supported by E.ON. Every night from 9th to 18th October, the mappings of the six finalists and an intromapping will be shown on the Brandenburg Gate between 19:00 and 24:00 in a unique 25 minutes long show. The world famous landmark will be brought to life by artists from 6 nations.
